Single Cell Dielectric Spectroscopy in a Micro-channel
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose the idea of single cell dielectric spectroscopy for future clinical applications such as cell therapy and regenerative medicine. The structure of the microfluidic device is carefully designed to suppress the influence of electrode polarization on the dielectric spectra of single cells. Beads of uniform size distribution is used to determine the detection limit. As feasibility tests for biological samples, the dielectric spectra of single cells are measured for two kinds of cell lines and compared to those measured for the suspensions of the same cell lines.

EFFECT OF ELECTRIC FIELD ON PD ACTIVITY AND DAMAGE INTO SOLID DIELECTRIC MATERIALS
Abstract – In this paper, the effect of applied electric field on the damage due to partial discharges activity into the surroundings dielectrics of a narrow channel encapsulated within the volume of a dielectric material is evaluated using a kinetic model based on Particle in Cell - Monte Carlo Collision (PIC-MCC) model. After application of an electric field across a dielectric material which...
متن کاملChannel thickness dependency of high-k gate dielectric based double-gate CMOS inverter
This work investigates the channel thickness dependency of high-k gate dielectric-based complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) inverter circuit built using a conventional double-gate metal gate oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (DG-MOSFET). It is espied that the use of high-k dielectric as a gate oxide in n/p DG-MOSFET based CMOS inverter results in a high noise margin as well...
